And all right.
So there was a witness that the Democrats had called who was a former senior agent of the FBI.
And he gave this whole testimony about how the FBI is utterly beyond politics and it's impartial and it has no partisan agenda at all.
And I actually cross examined him quite a bit.
And I said, look, I agree with what you're saying.
That's what the FBI is supposed to be.
And that's what DOJ is supposed to be.
And I'm an alumnus of the Department of Justice.
I served in the George W. Bush Department of Justice.
And it has a more than century-long tradition of being...
outside of politics, not partisan at all.
And I said, one of the worst things that Barack Obama and especially Joe Biden did is they corrupted it and turned DOJ and the FBI into partisan tools.
And this witness didn't want to admit it.
But here's one question I asked him.
Give a listen.
Menendez is currently incarcerated in prison for corruption.
And if you've got evidence of criminal conduct of one individual,
the Department of Justice has an obligation to investigate that.
Would you agree that's qualitatively different than a fishing expedition targeting 20% of the Republicans in the Senate?
